Opening day at the Stadium ends with call to Rivera
Rivera opening day at the Stadium 3/31/11, v Tigers, final 6-3. top ap, rest getty, bottom with Russell Martin after game.
"A 1-2-3 top of the ninth from the great Mo Rivera, who will become the all-time saves leader in the same season when Jeter goes past 3,000 hits eventually. The only thing different about No. 42, from what we saw of him Thursday, the only thing different about him at the age of 41, is that he is wearing his socks higher this season. Of course the only way for the day to end right
